I agree a list of issues, just broad ones, would be helpful.

I am interested in VMs, so knowing which ones have what problems,
and my own needs, would be help me make a good choice.

Please, disparage with details! ;-)

Thanks - Joseph

You're wrong. Using the virtualbox module means you turn the kernel to
"tained crap" because of the number of problems it causes, including
random memory curruption.
Care to back that up with something resembling evidence?

EVERY out-of-tree module will taint the kernel.

But not all virtualization solutions use out-of-tree module and from
those coming out-of-tree, few are taint as "crap".

                                                As to whether it
deserves the "crap" moniker is a matter of opinion

...I'd rather say a matter of facts. :-)

Every one is free to support virtualbox but forgetting to talk about
this taint level is not very fair, FMPOV.
